The Fuerteventura region
FUERTEVENTURA
The second largest of the Canary Islands, but considered the oldest, has a warm & dry climate the whole year, with cooling breezes generally from the North East the island is a hotbed for Watersports.
The popular resorts on the island are in Corralejo in the North with it's miles of superb white sandy beaches and Caleta de Fuste on the East coast with it's Championship Golf Course.
Inland there are many charming villages such as Betancuria, at one time the islands capital, Tefia, Villaverde and Antigua.
Morro Jable lies in the South of the island with miles of beautiful beaches and scenery, worth a visit in this area is Cofete, home to the Winter Villa which is the shape of the island and curiously the position of the villa lies in the same position as it's location on the island. Allied ships were frequently attacked by German submarines that surrounded and protected this small island from prying eyes.
Historical accounts now tend to suggest that Villa Gustav Winter acted as a safe house for top escaping Nazis most probably heading to America.
Its isolated location next to the Atlantic and its natural mountain shelter would have been an ideal rendezvous point for Nazi leaders arriving by submarine and seeking a safe haven until they could slip into anonymity after the war.
Another myth that has grown is that Vila Gustav Winter was a halfway house not only providing safe haven but also a hospital where plastic surgeons operated to give their overlords new faces to match their new identities.
In an interview shortly before her death, the widow of Gustav Winter firmly denied the allegations levelled at her late husband over the years.
She denied that the villa had ever had connections to the Nazis or that it was built as a hideaway for Adolf Hitler – she said the infamous villa was built for the simple reason of exploiting agriculture in the area.
El Cotillo a charming coastal town in the North of the island is famous for it's Lagoons and Seafood Restaurants.
The capital Puerto Del Rosario is home to the only airport on the island.
There is a Championship Golf Course in Caleta de Fuste 35 mins by car and Go Karting in Cardon & Puerto Del Rosario.

THE COMPLEX
Mirador de Las Dunas is a residential complex situated in the Parque Natural area on the edge of the ever popular town of Corralejo, with its stunning beaches, friendly and relaxed atmosphere and abundant shops and restaurants.
The complex is in a front-line position to the beautiful, protected sand dunes of Corralejo, with unimpeded views of the sea & the islands of Lobos & Lanzarote. It is bordered by protected park land & also has panoramic mountain views.
It is within a secure gated community & has a large communal swimming pool area with a wonderful lagoon style pool & a smaller shallow pool for children. There is also a hot tub and paddle tennis court soon to be constructed.
As the complex is a residential one and also brand new, there are currently very few residents, so it is the perfect place to literally 'get away from it all'! It is amazingly quiet and tranquil & the chances are, the whole pool area will be deserted!
